I think that python is the better choice for an in-person class, but building an in-browser js interpreter is a lot simpler than an in-browser python interpreter.

Hmm. that makes sense. because browser have been handling js for a longer time and so there would be more support for a in-browser js interpreter. I have seen some python in-browser interpreters, which are good though.
